ASU and KWKW 1972-1975 |
| In 1973, Spanish Language KWKW in Los Angeles offered me a consulting position. Taking advantage of the opportunity, I moved to Phoenix and simultaneously enrolled in Arizona State University (after getting a GED since my Ecuadorian diploma did not qualify for US University admission; I got the highest score ever seen in the state up to that time) majoring in business and statistics and where I was on the Dean's List each semester. |

| While consulting KWKW in Los Angeles, also assisted with sister KRUX and KTKT in Arizona. Here is my snapshot of (l-r) KWKW News Director Antonio González, KRUX's Gerry Ackley, Henry Kissinger and the President of Mexico at Nogales, AZ in 1974. |

Of course, to get into college my credentials from Ecuador were not
valid. I took the GED test and went back to school. |

Proving that an Ecuadorian education was very good, I scored and
average of over 98 on the GED test. |
